The befriending scheme provides simple genuine friendships for those aged 70 or over from committed and caring people willing to give an hour or so a week to their befriendee. The charity responds to the high demand for community-based opportunities for social contact amongst older people so as to reduce and prevent the isolation experienced by many people as they grow into old age.
